When the mother of Jesus said “Son, they have no wine”, at the Cana wedding feast, did He reply,

“Mom, it’s good thing they ran out before there’s too much drunkenness. I wouldn’t contribute to making the situation any worse.”

Instead, Jesus willed His first miracle recorded in Scripture, and when the chief steward tasted the water changed to wine, he called the bridegroom over & criticized his saving the best wine for last when the guests were too inebriated to taste the difference.

At the Last Supper, Jesus took the cup filled with wine and gave thanks........

Kinda difficult to insist that it was all only grape juice.

Not at all...You had to add all kinds of philosophical human reasoning behind your conclusion...John the Baptist didn't touch strong drink...

Why would God get drunk, or condone drunkenness which is a pretty good breeder for sin???
